| Interesting!! It's hard to believe it's been 30 years (more than 30!) since it was last made. I loved that version so much! (Had it memorized word-for-word. Literally.) But I'm actually willing to give a new one a chance. It sounds like they're hoping to make it a series. That could be a lot of fun. I'd have to put aside all of my ideas of who should look like what, and give it a chance as a "never-before-seen" kind of show for me to be able to give it a fair shake. But I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with it. | |

| Lisa...that's funny. I had " Annie" memorized. My brother hated for me to start singing.
Well there is only one place to film it.....Canada!! Megan will always be Anne to me though. It is the lack of Christianity that has brought us where we are. Not a lack of churches or religious forms but of the real thing in our hearts. LIW.....Words From a Fearless Heart | |

Most of the Anne movies and Road To Avonlea were filned in Toronto. Some of the spots they used are close to me and I have been to the farm where the serires was filmed. I hadn't heard about this new show. Will have to look for info about it in the area. | |

| No, it won't be good as the original Anne of Green Gables. Probably won't even last 1 season. It's set back in 1908. What are they trying teach our kids? I can understand, having new characters. But, having Anne on facebook or twitter. So, will it be 1908. Anne is on facebook? | |

No. Not 1908 - it will be set in 2012 if they continue with their current plans. - bethandmanly wrote:

I'd be more optimistic about it if you were, Cheryl. Maybe you should contact them. | |

Like they always do 99% of the time with remakes. Sadly true. | |

Yes, Re-makes usually suck. None of the Re-makes of little house was that good either.

I did not know they made a remake of Little House. In 2005, Ed Friendly produced a mini-series that was similar to the Pilot episode. It starred Erin Cottrell as Caroline and Cameron Bancroft as Charles. Friendly wanted to produce a show closer to the books and hoped it would get picked up as a series. That did not happen. Also, in 1999 and 2002, CBS released two movies titled: Beyond the Prairie: The True Story of Laura Ingalls Wilder 1 & 2. This covered Laura's teen years, meeting Almanzo, the first few years of their marriage, and the early years at Rocky Ridge Farm. Richard Thomas (John Boy from the Waltons) played Charles in this one. | |

No. Not 1908 - it will be set in 2012 if they continue with their current plans. Ugh, set in 2012? That's part of what I like about the original Anne of Green Gables...that it was set back in the early 1900's. | |
